An agent setup recipe
Turn work notes into a short achievement log
Make a few factual work entries from rough notes, keeping your contribution, team credit, and evidence separate.

Short dated contribution entries with duplicates merged for review
Illustrative example · fictional input
- Example input
- Fictional October work notes. N1, 3 October: I drafted the setup checklist; colleague Lee reviewed it. N2, 5 October: team used the checklist once; no time measurement was taken. N3, 6 October: Lee wrote that the steps were clearer. N4, 7 October: I plan to add an FAQ next week. Accepted entry L1 already records the 3 October checklist draft. Prepare proposed updates and new entries without double-counting L1.
- Example result
- Illustrative result, not a recorded run: update to L1: 3 October — drafted the setup checklist; Lee reviewed it. Team used it once on 5 October. Lee said the steps were clearer on 6 October; time savings were not measured. Next step: FAQ planned, not completed.
The existing L1 is updated rather than duplicated. Lee receives credit for review and their feedback is attributed. One use does not become measured time savings. The planned FAQ stays separate from completed work.
What you need
Use this short writing prompt when notes have built up and are hard to reuse. Paste a few bullets and any earlier entries for the same work. You do not need a new tracking system. Save accepted entries in the document you already keep; a plain dated note is enough.
- A ChatGPT account with access to Work on the web. Check your current account allowance; usage depends on your plan.
- Use notes you are allowed to share. Paste them in ChatGPT with the prompt; no plugin, API key, project or custom bot is needed.
- Keep the original material available for the short review below. Missing optional details can stay unknown.
Set it up
- Open ChatGPT in your browser, sign in and select Work if available in your account. Start a new chat for this task.
- Copy the prompt below and paste it into ChatGPT. Add the notes listed under What you need in the same message, in their current form. Keep the default option or change it here first. The assistant will start with your inputs; no separate setup conversation is needed.
- Check the wording and team credit, then save the accepted entries in your existing work log.
Your setup prompt is ready
Copy the ready prompt, or customize it with the settings. Paste it into ChatGPT Work to give it the task rules.
Customize (optional)
Defaults are ready to use. Changes update the prompt here; paste it into your agent to apply them.
Schedule: When I ask.
Use the default or choose the other layout. Both keep the same facts and review checks.
Your choices stay in this browser for this guide. Avoid adding private information.
